The Situation

You represent a restaurant supply company that wants to sell a new product: a drink-making machine. The promotional email will be sent to dozens of restaurant operators who have bought equipment from you before. Some features of the machine: It automatically prepares complicated drinks with the push of a button. (You can decide if the machine makes milkshakes, coffee drinks, bubble tea, or something else.) It makes up to six drinks at once, faster than any human could. Users can customize the drink with a touchscreen. It can be installed for either customer or employee use. You can invent other features, but keep them realistic. The machine can't turn water into wine. You've tried the machine, and the drinks are tasty. The machine costs $10,000, which is expensive for equipment in this category. Your company also sells the flavours, mixes, and other ingredients that the machine uses.
